Tell Me A Lie

I am really confused right now. My friend just confessed to me and said he has feelings for me but the truth is I only think of him as a friend and nothing more than that. I feel bad if I tell him the truth that I like another guy. The problem with the other guy is I dunno if he likes me or not. He's giving me mixed signs and I really dunno what he's thinking about. He's just really sweet and funny and my dad said if he makes me happy then he's okay with it. My life is practically so confusing right now, I don't even know what to think anymore.
